Disabling the secondary truncation point

When you upgrade a primary database, the Replication Agent cannot be running, and the secondary truncation point should be turned off for the duration of the upgrade.

  1. Shut down the Replication Agents, or make sure that dbcc logtransfer is not running for the databases that are being upgraded.

  2. Shut down Replication Servers for the RSSDs you are upgrading.

  3. In each primary database including RSSDs, turn off the secondary truncation point:

    1> use database 
    2> go 
    1> dbcc settrunc ("ltm", "ignore") 
    2> go
    

    Repeat step 3 for each primary database and each primary RSSD.
